Jar of Tiny Stars, A

Cullinan, Bernice E.

This collection of poems celebrates the many "lives" of a city. Allan De Fina's insightful observations capture the ambience and diversity of a city's sights, sounds, and cultural mixes. The everyday becomes extraordinary through momentary pauses, showing that life in the city can be an experience, not just an existence. Illustrator Ken Condon captures these glimpses through simple yet expressive black-and-white drawings.

When a City Leans Against the Sky

De Fina, Allan

All the jump-roping, rollerskating, skyscraping excitement of city life is packed into this pulsating collection of poems selected by Jane Yolen. Poems by Langston Hughes, Jane Yolen, Rachel Field, and others capture the rush and rumble, toss and tumble of taxis and trains, pigeons and parks, sidewalks, and street cleaners. Ken Condon's bold illustrations evoke the gritty passion of the urban scene. Young readers will delight in this irresistible anthology that crackles with energy and zest.

Sky Scrape/City Scape: Poems of City Life

YOLEN, JANE

When the sun rises, it lifts the curtain on the horizon, ushering in a brand-new day. And like a new day, each horizon is original. Sun, clouds, sky, water, even skyscrapers shape the distance and offer us new views and the chance to think about what lies beyond. Renowned poet and author Jane Yolen gives us her insights on horizons great and small in fourteen new poems. Inspired by Jason Stemple's stunning photographs of vistas found in deserts, swamps, mountains, and other scenic places, Ms. Yolen, in thoughtful, playful verse, allows us to imagine what happens when earth meets sky.
